He wouldn't hold up well in Right at Fenway and they will not move Crawford over their seeing as he seems to be a creature of habit. Even if his speed and fielding ability would be a godsend at Fenway.

Haha I hate Crawford. I'm a creature of habit so in addition to not hitting I'll play the smallest corner OF spot in the majors where my speed (only true asset) is being wasted.

Brilliant letting one of Scott Pioli's henchmen have his own team to ruin. One of the premier GM jobs in the NFL and it gets handed to a stupid **** who makes three facepalm moves for every good one. Awesome. Just like handing a new Mercedes to a 16 year old girl who's already been in three wrecks.

Yes it does. It's going to take me some time to get used to all the new rules in this CBA though.

What changed about compensation then? I swear I read something had changed, and because the CBA was agreed to after Papelbon had signed with Philly, the compensation would remain as it was prior to the CBA for that case.

They are saying that VMart will DH with Prince at 1st and Cabrera at 3rd...but I would trade him as soon as he's healthy and can pass a physical. He was a below average catcher even before the knee thing, I love his bat but we should eat some salary and dump him to fill our other needs.

I agree with the notion of dealing VMart, but that's a really tough sell job in the Tigers' clubhouse, IMO. Leyland LOVES Victor and he's a real leader there. Maybe a year of him being away from the clubhouse will temper those feelings a bit, but I wouldn't bet on a trade of Victor when healthy at this juncture.

Give Cabrera a bottle of Petron and have "hooker day" in spring training '13 and all would be forgiven.
